Gone

Photo of a private beach, with a mountain range in the distance and a small jetty on the left side of the photo.

Lapped up by the waves;

two humans, a three legged dog—

footprints on the beach.

Food machine

Close up photo of a puppy looking longingly at the photographer’s hand, which is out of the frame, but holding a piece of cracker.

Eyes full of longing
every dog yearns for some love
shaped like a biscuit.

Peace

Photo of a dog sleeping beside a human’s leg with a laptop partly visible on the photo.

Totally stress free;
knows there’s food after his nap—
peace in a dog’s eyes.

Love

Photo of a walking trail, surrounded by trees with large canopies.

Walking down the aisle—
birds sing, twigs crunch underfoot,
to wed adventure.

Wait

Close up photo of a golden retriever sitting in a balcony, looking down at the street.

All senses heightened,
staring down a corridor—
child awaits her mum.
